At the moment, I use the below code, seem to work well:


(service
      home-dotfiles-service-type
      (home-dotfiles-configuration
       (directories
        (list (string-append
               (current-source-directory)
               "/dotfiles")))
       (template-config
        '((".home-dotfiles-template"
           ("var1" . "hello")
           ("var2" . "world"))))))
